Quick-Switch Views

Why waste time adjusting your gear? A redesigned transducer lets you switch instantly between Forward XL and Down XL views from your display. No need to go fishing for your transducer. Just select your preferred view, and fish.

Mount Smarter, Scout Faster

A new bracket – which can be shaft- or motor-mounted** – also makes it quicker and easier to switch into Scout Mode. Once you’re there, quick-reference markers help you choose the right angle for deep or shallow water. With simple tricks like these, no one makes it easier to switch between sonar views.

**Motor-mount exclusive to Recon Trolling Motor

Frequently Asked Questions

What displays are ActiveTarget® 2 XL Dual views, such as Scout XL Live 360 view, compatible with?

Scout XL Live 360 view is available on HDS® PRO only. Two independent views (Forward XL and Scout XL view) can be displayed as a split panel on HDS® PRO, HDS® LIVE, HDS® Carbon and Elite FS® 7/9 displays.

Can I buy the ActiveTarget® 2 XL transducer and connect it to my existing ActiveTarget® 2 Module?

Yes. The ActiveTarget® 2 XL Transducer is compatible with the ActiveTarget® 2 Module.

Can I install ActiveTarget® 2 XL and ActiveTarget® 2 on the same network without interference?

Yes. Connecting both blue Ping sync wires from each modules power cable will eliminate interference between the two transducers.

Is a software update for the ActiveTarget® 2 module and MFD needed to run ActiveTarget® 2 XL?

A new software version for the ActiveTarget® 2 module and compatible multi-function displays will be available at launch.

How do I move the transducer from Forward/Down XL to Scout XL using the new mount bracket?

Simply open the locking arm, rotate the arm and transducer upwards to the desired Scout position, rotate the transducer 90°, and close the locking arm.

How deep should the transducer be mounted below the water surface?

The transducer must be mounted low enough so that it always stays in the water even with waves or shifting of the boat. Mounting the transducer closer to the water surface will allow you to see the water surface closer to the transducer.

Why do I get a “No Source” message on the ActiveTarget® app after pairing two ActiveTarget® 2 XL systems for Scout Live 360 view?

The ActiveTarget app can only be used with unpaired standalone systems. You must unpair the two ActiveTarget® 2 systems to use the ActiveTarget app. The ActiveTarget Wide app should be used for the Scout Live 360 view only.
